[QUOTE="MrGiggles, post: 455953, member: 22613"] As you can see, those motors used the same lower unit for long and short shafts, and just used a spacer above the water pump. To convert it to a short shaft, you will need the short drive shaft, water tube, and (I think) shift shaft. I'm in a similar situation, I have the same motor but with a short shaft, and it is still a bit long even on a short transom. If it were mine, I would purchase or build a jack plate. [/QUOTE]
